"I have your medication kit here. Maria must have switched it by mistake. Why do you have so many? You can come soak in the pool and take them before you leave."
My eyes widened.
For a moment, my mind went completely blank.
He had it.
Before I could think further, my body had already moved.
I grabbed my phone and stepped out of the room immediately—
Heading straight for 0108.
I let myself relax… even though I knew I shouldn't.
The warmth of the water, the steady pressure of his hands—it was too easy to sink into it, to forget everything else.
For a moment, I stopped thinking.
Stopped resisting.
Then—
Something shifted.
His hands, once firm and steady on my shoulders, slowed.
Not stopping.
Just… changing.
A faint awareness crept in.
Subtle.
But unmistakable.
My breath hitched slightly.
I should have moved.
Should have said something.
But I didn't.
Maybe it was the warmth of the water.
Or the exhaustion from the day.
